______
Time has passed since the defeat of Yveltal and the inhabitants of Pokimono slowly recovered from the death-goddess´destruction-raid. The villages were more and more rebuild and the daily business returned as good as the circumstances allowed.
This also meant that the newly revived leaders Noria and Renjiro picked up the battle-tournament and let announce the semi-finals all across the country.
With the Cherry-blossom-festival held across Pokimono-country, the continuing battle-tournament was a welcoming distracting entertainment from the last months´ dark times to most Gijinka. Even if several harsh fighting-sessions were demanted, the contestants, but also the viewers knew that anything will held under control, so no participant has to die through the tournament.

Fushishi with his family returned to Scorched Mountain. There they had to face the dreaded screnario of the burned down theatre and homes. But there was no time to grieve, even less when knowing that Xerneas the god of eternal life just granted the entire Gijinka a compleate new life. Having to start almost from zero, the Aragoto-, Wagoto- and Dokubutsu-clan worked all together to rebuild their homes and theatres. During this process, the news about the continuing battle tournament has reached Scorched Mountain.
Pretty surprised about the quick reactivation of the competition, Fushishi knew he had to join there again. Once being signed up, he didn´t wanted to skip the duty of an honorful contestant.
But the male Venusaur also didn´t really wanted to leave his beloved ones that soon again.
Especially less, when considering that he just became father of two children – Fuudori and Mika.
Shizuka, his wife wasn´t really fond either about this, because she hoped that Fushishi could helped her out abit with the parental duties. It wasn´t common that the fathers picked up the baby-sittings. But since the theatres had to be rebuild at first and Shizuka has to deal with two children at once, exception were able to make as well too.

To Fushishi´s surprize, his mother took his side by saying that he has to fulfill his duties as a contestant. Especially since the tournament was lead by Noria- and Renjiro-sama, skipping their event would cause a big dishonor on the Aragoto-clan.
That´s how Fushishi traveled back to the already well known Gale Springs, where the ice arena was build. Fushishi was able to get some brief tips from aunt Gureimai, who´s a Glaceon and pretty known to the icy-surroundings – before he entered the second round, which also was the semi-final.
Fushishi knew that again his family sadly couldn´t watch him fighting. They had to rebuild the theatre as quick as possible to reenter the perfomer´s business. Plus the plain fact, that the ice-areana was frigging COLD!
“Especially father would have frozen off his remaining wings..poor geezer…and not to mention Shizuka, Fuudori and Mika…my poor babies.” Fushishi thought with some concern, while waiting in the small tent - ready to be called by the Latios. 

Through a small slit, Fushishi saw Renjiro the Latios guardian hovering over the mirrow-like frozen lake. The half-dragon typed Gijinka was packed in thick clothings to withstand the low temperatures.
The arena was again surrounded by tribunes, where many spectacteurs joined to watch the battle.
Renjiro rose his gentle voice and again it seemed magically boosted, so everybody could hear him clearly: “Ladies and Gentlemen! I  - Renjiro, guardian of Noir Vale- have the honour to be the referee and commentor of this fight for the semi-finals of Pokimono´s first battle tournament! Not that I am a big fan of fights by myself, I would especially appreaciate a fair and square brawl from all contestsants here!”
He made a pause to let the crowd yell in excitement. Than the Latios spoke again: “Let´s welcome our three brave fighters Zanguusu Momoko Misaki, Katashi aand~ Aragoto Fushishii~!”
With this signal, Fushishi deeply inhaled, exhaled and stood up, ready to walk to the arena´s field.

 Right there he got hit by a solid wall of bare coldness. Stepping on the ground he also noticed the slippery ground. Remembering Guremai´s advices, he carefully stepped forwards.
“H-holy...is that c-COLD!” He barely breathed, while his visitable steam emitted like misty clouds. Swiftly looking around he saw the viewing Gijinka on the surrounding tribunes and two other shemes approacing the frozen lake´s centre from different directions. “Alright...there´s no time to play the frozen leaf..let´s get the classy grassy butt into gears. Movements are the best way to keep you warm, pal...” Fushishi muttered to himself.
Thanks to his long excersised foot-work through the acting-career, Fushishi got quickly adapted to the unusual ground. The solid soles and the claw-like spikes of Fushishi´s heavy footwear were very handy, so he tried out some ice-slidings. Gently pressing the Sasumata into the ice for getting a stable hold, he was even able to slide in more or less graceful circles.
“Not bad my equipment!” Fushishi smiled but he got interrupted by Rejiro´s speech.
“Well dear Gijinka, as you can see, each one of the contestants already had found out a way how to handle the slippery ice-floor. But hey! Young Aragoto, don´t let this tournament turn into a beauty-contest!” the guardian commented slightly irritated.
The crowd partly laughted about this funny comment, but also apploused for the early starting entertainment. Fushishi stopped his slidings and gently stomped on the ice, which made a deep echoing sound. “The ground also seems to be stable enough for us. But if Gureimai is right, under this ice-layer, there must be water under it. Urgh..I wouldn´t like to take an icy bath...”, Fushishi shivered again and like the other two, he politely bowed to his opponents in a respectful way. No one dared to exchange words, because the air was really cold.

Hovering close to the three fighters, Renjiro continued to speak: “Before I would let the fight start, let´s have a prayer to Arceus-sama!”
Like in the last round, Fushishi lowered his head and hold a praying position, while Renjiro
chanted a similiar prayer like Noria-sama did before. Being thankful that the crisis had ended and that Gijinka from across the country regained more and more the joy, Fushishi also thought about his family, who were working hart at Scorched Mountain.
Now Renjiro had ended his prayer and lifted himself very highly. He rose an arm and shouted:
“With the requested blessings from Arecus-sama...let the semi-final-fight BEGIN!”
With these words he sharply drove down his arm, giving the signal, that the three fighters shall begin. The crowd exploded in excitement!

Fushishi glanced at the other two opponents and just wanted to think about a strategy how to fend off two Gijinka at the same time. But maybe it was more wise to let the others have their first move, so he can check up their abilities. Just with these thoughts, Momoko the Zangoose swiftly slided over the surface. Not like a dance, but in a fierceful manner. With help of her claw-like weapons shortly sticking in the ground, she managed to quickly zig-zagging over the surface, making the two taller males Gijinka become quite confused. How shall Fushishi catch this fast woman?
Before he even could react, Momoko scrached over the ice, creating a sharp curve towards Fushishi and rose her arms. With her movements Momoko gained enough spinning-speed to perform a series of Aerial Ace attacks. The Venusaur couldn´t even move any inch for dodging, so he quickly rose his Sasumata with the forked tip in front of him. Hope to keep Momoko at distance, he had to realize that only half of her attacks have been blocked. Fushishi had to take direct hits of the other half. Stumbling over the icy floor, he used the weapon´s pointed end, to get a better hold on the ice. Performing more circles, he was at least able to do not face Momoko with his back.
But the fierceful Aerial Ace-attacks already sliced up several bits of his large mane. “Damn you woman!” Fushishi growled and just wanted to counter attack...as a large concrete-collum got thrown out of nothing.
Momoko quickly backed up and jumped flick-flack-styled to dodge the collum. Fushishi deeply rammed his Saumata into the ice, allowing himself to lift up and half curled – half jumped over the heavy collum, which slided over the ice.
With this spinning movement, Fushishi´s mane got released and several leaves were summoned.
With a heavy “thud”, Fushishi landed on both feet again and quickly waved his arms to both opponents´ directions, leading the razor-sharp leaves there.
This happened too quickly and unexpected for Momoko and Katashi. While the Zangoose got caught off guard in her mid-air jump, Katashi crouched himself blocking the leaves with his single arm.
“Woah...not bad that guy. Having quite the guts to fight with only one arm. But I better shall not underestimate him! Throwing that rock-pillar that easily may let the ice break.” Fushishi thought by himself.

“Not a bad idea Aragoto-san, to keep us at distance. But you´re not the only one who can do this!” Momoko spoke as she recovered from the last hit. She slided again over the ice in her same style. But now she quickly threw several shuriken at Fushishi and Katashi.
“Argh!” Fushishi yelped as he got several cuts over his arms. Not all Shuriken were able to be blcoked with his relyable Sasumata. Heavily breathing, he didn´t really noticed the fast sliding Conkeldurr. The large fighting-typed Gijinka used his own weight to gain enough speed to avoid some of the incoming shuriken. While sliding he grabbed his stone-pole and shielded himself with it from the rest of the sharp Ninja-tools. Still sliding, Katashi found his targed and rammed right into Fushishi´s hollows of the knees from behind.
The heavy impact on the disadvantaged body-spot didn´t gave Fushishi any chance to withstand the perfectly performed Low-Kick attack.
While the Conkeldurr curled around over the floor in a selfprotective-holding position, Fushishi felt backwards and landed quite hard on the ground. To his luck, the thick mane absorbed enough from the impact, so his head didn´t recieved major damage. His weapon sliding away, Fushishi heard  a loud crack under him. “Shimatta! Is the ice finally going to break?!”
Just as he saw upwards in the sky, Momoko was directly targeting towards him and yelled in a victorious way. “You´re MINE now Aragoto-san! Crush Claw!” As said, her large claw-weapons brightly shined, ready to sink the still motionless Venusaur into the lake.
In despair and not able to dodge the attack, Fushishi inhaled, create a large lump in is mouth and spit a Sludge Bomb directly to Momoko. Because the Zangoose gained quite a speed, she wasn´t able to change the curse anymore and got direct hit by the large ammount of poisonous substance. This luckily slowed down enough the attack, so the Crush Claw lost it´s effect.
Landing next to Fushishi, Momoko yelled in pain, because of the burning poison.
Now Fushishi had bought enough time to recover from Katashi´s Low-Kick attack and crawling-slided over the floor catching again his weapon.

Just with this movement, he saw how the Conkeldurr jumped towards Momoko with a rising stone-pole – ready to hit this time. But the Zangoose´s eyes shined in a maniac way and she hissed dangerously. “Don´t underestimate me just because I´m poisoned!” Her claws glowed again and she neatly sliced the pole. The stunned Katashi couldn´t react, because the Zagoose quickly continued her attacking-streak. One Aerial Ace after another was delivered towards the currently defenseless male fighter.
“Now it´s my chance!” Fushishi thought while sliding away from the two and the damaged ice-area  and released again several Magical Leaves, being directed towards the brawling opponents.

The leaves didn´t eaven reached one of them, because Momoko´s reactions seemed to be sharpened and she used several Night Slash attacks to slice away the attacking leaves. Quickly half sliding, half jumping over the frozen sea, she approached Fushishi and launched again several Aerial Ace-attacks. Not being prepared again for this suddent turnout, Fushishi had to be in a defensive position again. “Darn it…these Aerial Ace attacks combinded with this freezing cold…I won´t stand against both that long anymore.” He thought while panting more and more heavily. His stamina got more and more drained  the longer Momoko continued her slicing salve. But Fushishi also noticed that her movements were slowing down more and more the longer she kept on attaking Fushishi. Than Momoko caughed and cringed in pain. The poison seemed to reached it´s effect-peak. While both fighters were standing, heavily panting and barely able to stand upright, a loud yell was heard from behind, before a crushing arm send both – the Venusaur and Zangoose- flying.
Monomo landed with a hard smash on the icy ground and didn´t move anymore.
While this Fushishi rolled over the ice, still trying to stay awake, he heard Renjiro´s voice approacing.

“Oh and here the first fighter isn´t able to move anymore. This means I have to use the final countdown. Will Momoko-san be able to recover?”
While the Latios counted up to ten, Fushishi sat on the floor, while Katashi stood some feet away. Both switching glances between each other and the motionless Zangoose, not daring to pick up the fight, while one opponent is defenseless. But these seconds also offered a valueable moment for the remaining contestants to take a break.
“…Annd~ ZERO! That´s how I have to announce now that Zanguusu Momoko Misaki is no longer able to participate this fight. Medics, please recover her from the arena for further treatments. That Hammer-arm attack really hurt to the normal-typed Zangoose-lady...” Renjiro spoke with a slightly concerned voice.

After Momoko got gently carried away, Fushishi tensed up again. Both remaining fighters stared at each other with a strong willed determination to take down the other one. “That guy really is hightly peristent!” Fushishi huffed between his breaths. He inhaled again and shot a large pile of poisonous lump. Using his weapon at the same time and combined with the rocket-like shot from the attack, Fushishi pushed himself backwards – away from the Conkeldurr. He really can´t effort to take another major blow from Katashi! To Fushishi´s luck, the opponent just wanted to head towards the Venusaur and got caught by the Sludge Bomb. Stumbling over the even more slippy ground, he also groaned in pain. “Seems that he also got posioned. That will make things more easy for me now.” were the next thoughts of Fushishi … as he just had to looked with shocked-widened eyes how suddently fast Katashi stomped towards him. “What´s happening to him this time?! Shouldn´t Katashi-san already be at the end of his energy?”
The coldness still drained Fushishi´s mental sources and that´s why his reactions were slowed down a lot.
WHAM! And again Fushishi lost his hold on the ground after Katashi slided over the ground using another Low Kick attack. This time the ground felt even harder than before. Fushishi´s entire body ached in pain from too many slices from the Aerial Ace-attacks, bruises from the two Low-Kicks attacks, the cuts from the shuriken and still from the gnawing freezing temperature, which was ruling mercylessly through the entire fight.
Being very tired he blinked several times...the senses slowly slipping away. From the distance Fushishi could vaguely hear Renjiro commenting and announcing again the final countdown.
“Was this it? The final act...and than the curtain falls for you, pal?” Fushishi asked himself with a foggy mind. “I guess the many type-disadvantaged circumstances won´t had have allowed me to pull off the fight for a victory from the beginning on…but yeah …I really DID my best…” He slowly breathed and felt the ground swirling as if he was traveling by boat.

Than he heard again an alarming loud crack from beneath the icy ground. Terrified, he widely opened his eyes: “No way I can´t let myself fall through the breaking ice! Not the cold wet grave-like water!! I´ve endured much more than this…the Kami-trio-war…Yveltal´s striking…being temporarly immortal….I can´t simply slack off here!”
Fushishi felt an odd energy deep inside of him and he remembered the words from his father…
____

Fushishi sparred with his father, who cornered him with his more skilled moves: “You´ve endured quite a lot junior- de gozaru! Just a little more and your ability will be awaken-de gozaru!!! Overgrow will strenghen your grass-typed attacks alot-de gozaru! When being able to control it properbly it also will help you alot during the performances, even when feeling super-tired- de gozaru!”

 ____

“Father is right, I truly can feel the familiar grass-energy whispering to my tired body!”
With help of the Sasumata, Fushishi slowly stood up while hearing Renjiro saying: “Three…ohh~ and the young Aragoto truly has awaken from his slumber. And what´s happening with him? He look much different…much more DETERMINATED than ever before!”
The crowd made a long streched “OHHHH~!” sound and Fushishi stood upright again with his entire 6’07’’ tall body-size. Not only that he feels the grassy engery, he also saw his halfly cut, halfy frozen off mane quickly regrew to it´s previous might.
Fushishi saw the cracks in the ice circeling more and more around him and Katashi…not hesitating any second, he quickly slided backwards while speaking towards his opponent:
“Now the scene has changed again and I`ll take over the main-role again. Sorry Katashi-san for stealing ya spotlight!” Fushishi grinned with confidence, while releasing more and more magical leaves.
Now he´s dancing in a compleate frenzy and swirling way. “Iii~ won´t let you have any openiings~!” The leaves formed a dome around the Conkeldurr. Katashi desperatly tried to shove away the rapidly spinning leaves, but the quick movements let him being repelled again and again.
Ignoring the pain, which is trying to return, Fushishi sharply inhaled, rose one foot and his Sasumata and rammed both in front of him while yelling a loud: “IIIIIOOOOUU~!!”
The circle-formed crack closed and formed a large ice-plate around the still trapped Katashi. The heavy impact of the Earthquake let the swimming plate drastically shake. This let Katashi completely lose his balance. The Earthquake still worked until the ice-plate gave in and broke into pieces. The desperatly waving Conkeldurr yelled and felt into the water, which was now revealed.

“What for a hefty and bold move..that could have backfired in a very nasty way! But…I see no chance that Katashi-san will be able to resume the fight now. I better shall help him out…which means that the winner of this fight is…Aragoto FUSHISHIII~!” Renjiro yelled, which was replied by an exploding appouse and partly worried shouts for both remaining fighters.
Renjiro lowered and used his Psychic abilities to fish Katashi out of the freezing water. Placing him on stable ground, the Conkedurr shivered and gasped heavily, unable to bring out any word. “Quick shove him some warming Aspear Berries before doing any further treatmens!” Renjiro ordered this to the quickly approaching Medic Gijinka.
“I´m sorry pal for letting you suffer…but a tournament-battle is a fight where only one can win…” Fushishi mumbled with slight sorrow, before his sight darkened and his weary-limp body collapsed onto the solid-icy ground…
